Outreach
Learning about cutting edge computing and programming should not be limited to college students. We believe in bringing our knowledge and expertise out into the Birmingham community, introducing area high school students to computer science, programming, animation and gaming, and app development. We also offer continuing education to help professionals enhance their skills.
We invite you to explore the opportunities offered by the Department of Computer Science.
High School Programming Contest
State of Alabama High School Programming Contest (HSPC) hosted by UAB brings talented students from high schools throughout Alabama to the UAB campus to participate in an organized competition. Students individually compete to demonstrate their programming skills and problem-solving abilities by attempting to solve six programming problems within a three-hour period. Schools that have three or more contestants are also eligible for team awards.
